Charlotte Restaurant Week

Category : Charlotte News, Save Money in Charlotte, What to do in Charlotte

Charlotte Restaurant Week is here! The title sells it a little short since it’s actually 10 days long, but Restaurant Week and a Half doesn’t sound quite as catchy. From Friday, July 16, through Sunday, July 25, each participating upscale restaurant will offer a spectacular 3-course, prix fixe dinner menu for only $30 per person (not including tax and gratuity).

It’s a great opportunity to experience Charlotte’s wonderful variety of upscale restaurants without having to pay the premium price.

To see a complete list of participating restaurants and make reservations, visit http://www.charlotterestaurantweek.com/.

Angel Food Ministries

This is an amazing, non-profit organization dedicated to providing food relief and financial support to communities across the US.  Each month they sell a medium-sized box of fresh and frozen food for $30/month. The food would typically cost $60 at the grocery store.  This is a great way to reduce food costs and not lose any quality or nutrition.
